Why collect travel gifts for tea lovers? Because, in my experience, tea and travel just go together. Early morning flight? Wake up with a cup of tea (or three). Long day on the road? Relax in the evening with your favorite herbal blend. Not sure where to travel for your next vacation? How about a place with tea that has tea you love, like Japanese matcha or Indian chai. Not only do you get to go somewhere with excellent tea, you’re also going to Japan or India. Now, that’s worth a trip. Since it’s widely available and easily brewed almost anywhere, tea makes a practical and tasty travel treat. No matter where you’re headed, a hot “cuppa” can improve any tea lover’s day.
